My Predictions For Men's Final Four

This year's NCAA tournament has not had as many upsets as the last tournaments have had. Three out of the four number one teams got to the final four this year. Louisville, the number one seed lost in the elite eight to a very good number 2 seed, Michigan State. The number one seeds have gotten a couple of scares in this tournament, but in the end they won.

Now North Carolina plays Villanova, and Michigan State plays Connecticut. I believe that Villanova is going to beat North Carolina. I think that Villanova will win because they played in a tougher conference all year, and they have proved that they can beat good teams. In the elite eight, Villanova beat Duke by 23 points. Duke was a very good team, and Villanova just took care of business and crushed them in all aspects of the game.

I also think that Michigan State will beat Connecticut. I believe that Michigan State will win because they have a great point guard that is quick and can also shoot the ball. Along with that, everybody on their team that plays can score. The last reason I give Michigan State the win is because Tom Izzo is their coach, and he has been to the final four with Michigan State more than three times since the year 2000.

So the championship game is between Villanova and Michigan State, and I think that Michigan State will win this game also. It is going to be a very evenly matched game, but the Spartans will pull it out in the end because of their defense. Defenses do win championships.

The final four games are going to be quite good. I am going to be watching both of them, along with the championship game. They are both on this coming Saturday, 4/4. Michigan State and Connecticut play first starting at 6:07 Eastern, and the next game is following, both on CBS.
